I work on a British military base. Theres a woman at work, shes renowned for being less than smart.
She looked up one day and saw a twin rotored helicopter flying past, she said "Oh look, a Cernobyl"
On another occaision she saw a truck disgorging a load of short, swarthy looking soldiers. When she told us about it she said "They were Gherkins"
She tried to explain why a colleague was off sick, "He has deep-throat thrombosis"
She tangled up some cargo straps and fretted that they would be un-tangleable. She didn't want to own up to doing it, she said "People will think I'm stupid. I try not to be but I can't help it."
These are all true
